Services Section
CISSP.COM
& ALL ITS SITES ARE POP-UP ADs & SPYWARE FREE
CISSP.com Does Not Use or Support Pop-Up Ads, Pop-Under Ads, Spyware,
Hidden Ad-Supported Downloads or similar intrusive advertising
programs.
Since it's inception in 1998, CISSP.com has consistently put our users'
interests ahead of revenue opportunities that we believe adversely
affect user experience on CISSP.com or on the Internet.
To this end, we have ensured that you won't
find pop-up ads or pop-under ads served by us on our site.
In fact we have never served any type of pop-up or
pop-under advertising on our site. You also won't see us
offering services that install hidden, ad-supported programs on your
computer or support them by advertising CISSP.com through
such services
A site like CISSP.com that attracts active
Information Security Professionals could make substantial money by
engaging in these practices, but we have consciously and consistently
refused all such advertising in favor of a better user experience.
We simply value our users, and we believe you should not be subjected to
such activities. We have also rejected any advertising of CISSP.com
using pop-up ad services or on spyware programs, regardless of the
prospect of routing substantial (and sometimes unsuspecting) users
from other sites to inflate the traffic to our site. We find pop-up ads
to be disruptive and downright annoying. We don't like them when we are
using the Web, and we won't subject you to them on our site.
One way to reduce the amount of pop-ups you see is
to download a program like the
Google toolbar or
one of the many free tools found on
download.com. If
you're still seeing pop-up ads (especially if they occur during your
visit to CISSP.com), your computer likely has a program installed that
is serving pop-ups or a spyware program that is monitoring the content
you select so you can be redirected.
If you want to check your computer for spyware, a
couple of programs you may want to check out are
Ad Aware and
Spybot - Search & Destroy
which are free to download-just click on the links we provided to
download.com. (We have no relationship with the company or people who
produce the software, and we disclaim any and all warranties with
respect to the software.)
The Web was envisioned to be a user driven
community. It has scaled beyond anyone's wildest dreams and literally changed the world. We will continue to do our part to make the
Web experience honest and enjoyable and ask you to support those sites
and companies that continue to be forthright in their services.
Our fiercely loyal audience has told us
time and time again that they value the clean, fast, uncluttered,
and honest approach that drives CISSP.com. Our pledge is to continue to
do right by our community.
We want to hear what you think about pop-up ads
and spyware and CISSP.com's stance against them.
